I just received this email from Sephora:
Dear MAKE UP FOR EVER fan,
Like you, we were dying to try MAKE UP FOR EVER's new Smoky Palette. Unfortunately, the brand won't be launching the product in the United States. We'd like to make it up to you with a free deluxe sample of MAKE UP FOR EVER's Smoky Lash Mascara, a shortcut to densely lush lashes. Enter code SMOKY with your next online order to redeem.* We also invite you to explore MAKE UP FOR EVER's latest collections—we know you'll find something just as smoky and dramatic.
Sincerely,
Sephora Customer Service
Ummmm ok? I was told by a Sephora rep that there was an ingredient in the shadows that was not on the label and that's what caused the delay, but now it won't be released here at all?
I'm so disappointed. This has been the one palette I've been dying for, for months!
What have you heard and how does this news make you feel? Sigh :(

Ooh. Just saw the Smoky Palette earlier today at the MUFE store. And I forgot to buy it. ARGH! I'm such a space cadet. And it was on 30% sale, too. Hmm... Maybe I can go pick it up tomorrow or something.

@Lex I am so jealous!!!! I wish I had a MUFE store near me, I've been dying for that silly palette :(
@Angie I'm with you, if someone finds a loophole definitely share!

@DJ M. *patpat* There-there. If there was a way for me to ship the palettes to you guys all the way from Singapore, I would. I just found out about its existence today at the store and there were only 6 left. Hopefully, I'll be able to get one. I really liked the colors. Pur-ty. Wish me luck!

@Lex Thanks haha. I'm determined to find a way to get my hands on it. Might take some tricky maneuvering, but I'm gonna make it happen haha. Good luck nabbing yours! There's a serious frenzy starting here to find them.
@Jasmine Right? They had us waiting for soooo long. I'm sure a bunch of you, like me, stalked your Sephora sales girls for info haha. I'll find a way girls! Hold tight!

USicans, you don't need to order from a Canadian MUFE store, as the blog post DJ linked to suggests. Just call the flagship boutique in New York!

@Shelly I did today and I was told that they didn't have it and had no idea if they ever would because it was made for Sephora in the US, not the MUFE store. Did you call and receive a different answer?

@Chavalier I sympathize! You can order them from Canada if you find a store with them and willing to ship. I did this yesterday :) I posted a blog about it above. Good luck!

For any of you that saw the comment above regarding being able to purchase this palette in the US boutique that info is incorrect. I just received this email from MUFE:
Hi DJ,
We don’t have the smoky palette available in the studio. however, we have the shades available in the studio that make up the smoky palette. Please feel free to call with any questions. We are open 11am-7pm
Thanks!
MAKE UP FOR EVER
So again, if you want the actual palette you have to purchase it from Canada or another country like I did (I purchased mine from Quebec and had it shipped down--it just came today! Swatches to come later this week ;)). If you don't care about the palette and just want the shadows, you can purchase them individually. You'll get more shadow than in the palette, but it will cost you about 3x as much. I guess it depends on how badly you want it :)

Here's my review of the palette for anyone debating the palette (purchased out of the US) or individual colors available in the US: http://www.makeupchicliterarygeek.com/2011/11/swatches-review-make-up-for-ever-smoky.html
